Tested Parameters

Triglycerides

They are a type of lipid found in the blood and are part of total cholesterol levels. When we consume more calories than we burn, the excess is converted into triglycerides and stored in our body as fat.

Cholesterol

It helps our bodies produce hormones, vitamin D and bile (important for digesting food). If levels are too high, there may be an increased risk of heart disease.

LDL

Commonly referred to as bad cholesterol, LDL is essential for our health. At high levels, LDL can cause fatty deposits to build up inside the walls of the arteries, which can lead to atherosclerosis and cardiovascular disease.

HDL

HDL cholesterol is a high-density lipoprotein that is produced in the liver and is part of total cholesterol. HDL helps remove LDL (bad cholesterol) from the bloodstream and send it back to the liver.

Reference values*
